  9  And out of the ground made the Lord God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the ctree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil.

  12  And as I partook of the fruit thereof it filled my soul with exceedingly great joy; wherefore, I began to be desirous that my family should partake of it also; for I knew that it was cdesirable above all other fruit.

  8  And now my sons, behold I have somewhat more to desire of you, which desire is, that ye may not do these things that ye may boast, but that ye may do these things to lay up for yourselves a treasure in heaven, yea, which is eternal, and which fadeth not away; yea, that ye may have that bprecious gift of eternal life, which we have reason to suppose hath been given to our fathers.

  7  And, if you keep my commandments and endure to the end you shall have eternal life, which gift is the greatest of all the gifts of God.
